Can US routers be used in South Korea?
-
Yes it can. In the US wireless channels 12 and 13 are typically not being used whereas the rest of the world does make a use of them but that doesn't really affect you.

Don't really know what any of that means, but I'll just take that I can use any run of the mill router from here over there, correct? Thanks!

Yeah, you should be able to run your router wherever you like. The only real concern would be if the wall plugs are correct, though I don't know what South Korea's plugs look like.
Channels can be configured in your router's settings. Think of it as (sort of like) different roads all going to the same place. Some roads (like Channel 11 or 12) might be crowded, so you could take a detour onto a different road (channel) to help improve performance.
